Debug commands show advanced diagnostic about Abilis CPX system and resources. These types of commands need administrator or super user rights.
![[Note]](../images/note.png) | Note |
|---|---|
Shown information is strictly technical and meaningless for the user; Abilis CPX technicians could need it for detecting and solving eventual problems. |
By typing the following command, it's possible to display the syntax.
[13:54:30] ABILIS_CPX:debug ?BM Display Boot Manager configuration file CPXRUN Display CPX Run configuration file CTIVO Display information on CTIVO service DIAGTEST Display information on Diagnostics test performances ETHMAC Display factory MAC addresses of PCI Ethernet cards FILE File system information and statistics HOOK Task hook information IRQ Interrupts information and statistics MEM Memory information and statistics MAILFILTER Display information on Mail Filtering service PCIDEV Display PCI service debug information PO: CPX port number [0..999] RES: Resource identifier 'type-n', where 'n' can be [1..999] SIMULATE Simulate an event for debugging purposes TASK Tasks information and statistics USBDEV Display USB service debug information WDGMEM Watchdog memory
For example DEBUG FILE CONF command, displays the
internal file system driver configuration.
[17:48:27] ABILIS_CPX:debug file conf
RTF configuration:
- Maximum number of physical disks: 32
- Maximum number of drives: 25
- Maximum number of files: 135
- Maximum number of buffers: 256
- Sector buffer size: 4096This command shows debugging information about the specified resource. By typing the following command, it's possible to display the command syntax.
[13:54:40] ABILIS_CPX:debug res: ?DEBUG RES:val [par:val] Display debug information of a resource Additional parameters: LAYER: Select resource lower layer [L2, LINK, LAN, IP, IPT, PPP, PPPOE] <Optional, only if PROT: not specified> PROT: Select protocol layer [LAPB, MLM, ML, IPLAN, PLINKE, PPP, POECLI] <Optional, only if LAYER: not specified> SIZE: Select debug buffer size [7..63 Kibyte] <Optional> LSN: Lsn value [0..65534(dec) or 0000..0FFFE(hex), A] <Optional> CMD: Command string. Strings holding spaces must be written between quotation marks (e.g. CMD:"str1 str2 ...") <Optional>
Data are stored in a 6 KB size buffer. Depending on the resource
type, where the command is executed on, this buffer could not be enough
and at the end of the visualization the following message will be
displayed “INCOMPLETE INFORMATION: BUFFER SIZE TOO SHORT”.
By using the option SIZE, the user can eventually
increase the maximum buffer size used by the command. The indicated
value (in KB) must be in the interval [7 - 63].
By using the options LSN and
CMD it's possible to select the type of debugging
information to be displayed.
For example, to show debugging information of an ADSL line, type
the command debug res:ip-xx prot:ppp, where
xx is the number of the IP resource associated to the
ADSL line. With the options LSN, it's possible to
select the type of debugging information to be displayed; if it's set to
0, it will be displayed the command help.

The command DEBUG SIMULATE EVENT:val simulates an event for debugging purposes. Use the following command to show all possible events:
[13:58:50] ABILIS_CPX:debug simulate event: ?
DEBUG SIMULATE EVENT:val [opt:val] Simulate an event for debugging purposes
Possible events:
XCP [CPU:val] Structured exception on the specified CPU [MAIN or EXTRA].
The CPU specification is optional. By default the exception
is simulated on the Main CPU (corresponding to CPU:MAIN).
WDL WDLIVE1 event. It executes a never ending thread loop with
IRQ MONITOR RESTART disabled.
LOOP [<msec>] It executes a thread loop without task switching for the
specified amount of milliseconds [1..2000 msec].
If msec is omitted the loop is without time limit.
IRQLOOP Requires at least one ETH resource running and
'MULTI-CPU' mode DISABLED.
It forces the interrupt generation while serving is disabled.
This conditions causes an IRQ LOOP which has to be solved by
IRQ MONITOR.
WDGRESET WDG Reset. It resets WDG but doesn't make SW reset of the PC.
SWRESET Software only reset
BLOCKAGE Complete lock. It disables ALL the interrupts and executes a
never ending thread loop without task switching.
TSAVE Automatic TRACE saving request (trace stop-save-start)
QUIT Quit exception
TASKOVR Tasks overflow, i.e. too many threads
HOVR Heap overflow (bad allocation exception)This command simulates the structured exception:

This command resets WDG but doesn't make Abilis SW reset. it's useful to verify if the watchdog (MFIDE/MFPCI/MFLPC) is really able to make a HW reset of the Abilis CPX, and thus if the reset cable is properly connected.
